Congratulations! The winner of the Forum iPad Mini goes to Clive Kingston, Senior Information Security Specialist at XL Catlin, for best suggestion for a future ‘Security Matters’ Forum Title/Theme:

“Spies in the Sky – Increasing use of remote imaging systems such as drones and their effect on security and privacy”

Introduction

Cyber security - defined as the protection of systems, networks and data storage in cyberspace - is a critical issue for the market. More so as market firms find new and innovative ways to capture, store, analyse and share company data, they must also find secure ways to protect their information data assets - often the crown jewels of any organisation.

Juniper Research recently predicted that the rapid digitisation of consumers’ lives and enterprise records will increase the cost of data breaches to $2.1 trillion globally by 2019, increasing to almost four times the estimated cost of breaches in 2015.

Delivered by Lloyd's market professionals and leading UK security experts, this 75-minute seminar exposes the dangers facing the insurance sector - from within and externally - and reveals some of the newest cyber threat defences, which could aid market firms (irrespective of size) to pre-emp and reduce system vulnerabilities and the insider threat.

Who Should Attend

This 75-minute fast paced, thought provoking briefing is tailored to the needs of C-Level, underwriters, brokers, IT, security, compliance, risk, analysts and finance professionals in the Lloyd’s and London insurance market. If relevant to other colleagues within your company then please make this event known to them. Thank you.

Identifying insider threats before they happen is hard. Although many detection approaches have been tried, they are generally onerous to manage and impede legitimate business. BAE Systems has helped clients to protect critical information assets for over 40 years. In this talk, we discuss the threats and areas of risk most likely to impact Insurers and explore what you can do to defend against them and mitigate the impact.

In this talk we will present the latest intelligence from the Dell SecureWorks Counter Threat Unit on the cyber threat landscape. He will discuss both targeted and commodity threats, and how the threat landscape is changing. What are the motives of threat actors, and what could make your organisation a target together with some pragmatic advice on what you can do to protect your critical information assets and reduce risk?

In this talk we will identify why frequently deployed reactive approaches to security have failed to halt the rise of advanced cyber-attacks. How knowledge of common attack methodologies can stop advanced attackers from being successful at any stage in the attack lifecycle and receive steers/latest best practice techniques on how to significantly improve your security posture through a preventative security strategy.
